How to track profit and loss per region with location-based pricing?

Start a Business

Topic summary

A Shopify merchant wants to implement location-based pricing and track monthly profit and loss (P&L) by region or country. They’re asking whether Shopify provides automated financial reporting that breaks down performance geographically.

Current Limitation:

  • Shopify’s native “Gross Profit by POS Location” report exists but doesn’t support expense tracking, limiting full P&L analysis.

Suggested Solution:

  • Report Pundit (third-party app) can generate custom reports showing monthly P&L by city, state, or country.
  • The app’s “Sales by Location” report includes shipping, tax, total sales, and expenses at both order-level and complete profit breakdown.

Status: The question remains partially answered—while a workaround exists via third-party tools, native Shopify functionality doesn’t fully support automated regional P&L tracking.

Hi,

I’m looking into setting different prices based on customer location in Shopify, and I’d like to know if this feature also allows for automated monthly financial analysis.

Specifically, I need to see monthly profit and loss per region or country where I’m selling. Does Shopify provide this kind of reporting automatically, or would I need to use custom reports or third-party apps to achieve it?

If location-based pricing alone doesn’t allow this, could you please advise on the best way to track financial performance by region within Shopify?

I imagine I’m not the first one with this need, so I’d really appreciate any practical guidance or suggestions.

Thanks a lot in advance!

@ROS4 , The report you’re looking for isn’t exactly available in Shopify, nor is the automation. While Shopify does offer a report called “Gross Profit by POS Location,” it doesn’t allow you to include expenses. With Report Pundit, however, we can create a custom report to track monthly profit and loss by city, state, or country. The Sales by Location report provides detailed insights such as shipping, tax, total sales, and other expenses either at the order level or through a complete profit breakdown.
